Ukrainians were urged to join the "Warm for tails" initiative, where by playing with virtual animals you can help real dogs and cats survive the winter.

With the collected money, the organizers of the program, the EVA store line and the "Happy Paw" homeless animal aid fund, will purchase booths and firewood to warm and feed the animals, it is stated on the website of initiatives.

"Every homeless dog dreams of falling asleep and waking up in the warmest place on Earth — in the arms of his owner," the program description said. – Our goal is to collect 400,000 hryvnias to provide a warm and comfortable winter for at least 1,500 homeless cats and dogs. The animals will live in brand new hutches, as well as with a supply of firewood for cooking and heating the shelters.”

You can join the collection online on the initiative's website, or at the checkout of EVA stores, by donating at least 1 hryvnia. The collection will last until January 7, 2023.

On the website of the initiative, you can pet a cat, throw a ball to a dog or walk an animal.

Earlier, EcoPolitic worte, that the campaign will be held in Kyiv until December 21 "Month of help for animals", within the framework of which animal rights activists will collect necessary items for rescued four-legged animals from the Kyiv region.

As EcoPolitic previously reported, in Irpen, in the Kyiv region, in the microdistrict of the construction and assembly department, the "Animal Red Cross" organization will open the first "Four-legged Point of Unbreakability" in Ukraine.
